Overview
Merck conducts its annual engagement survey, achieving a high response rate in the previous edition. This year, the company challenged Imagem Corporativa to enhance the communication campaign to encourage participation in the survey — previously managed internally by Merck — and surpass the previous year’s record response rate.
The company’s workforce comprises both operational and administrative audiences, including office staff, Distribution Centers in São Paulo, and a manufacturing plant in Rio de Janeiro, requiring tailored and precise messaging for these distinct groups.
Objectives
